WHAT TO PUT IN CHICKEN ALFREDO RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Butter an 11-by-14-inch or other 4-quart baking dish. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Put the chicken in a dutch oven or other large pot, then add the chicken broth, crushed garlic, lemon zest, rosemary sprigs and bay leaves. Partially cover and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Cook, partially covered, until the chicken is tender, 20 to 22 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve (you should have 2 cups liquid; if necessary, add a little water to make 2 cups). When the chicken is cool enough to handle, tear or shred into small pieces. Wipe the dutch oven clean.
• Meanwhile, add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until just al dente, adding the broccoli during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain the pasta and broccoli in a colander and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking. Let drain in the colander while you make the sauce.
• Melt the butter in the Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic and cook until sizzling, about 30 seconds. Sprinkle in the flour and stir to make a paste; cook until the flour is no longer raw, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the reserved 2 cups cooking liquid and the heavy cream; season with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Return to a simmer, whisking to make a smooth sauce. Cook over low heat until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in 1 cup Parmesan, the parsley and lemon juice. Add the chicken, pasta and broccoli and stir to coat. Transfer to the baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan and the mozzarella. Bake until the top is golden and the edges are bubbly, about 25 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Put the olive oil, Parmesan, pine nuts, oregano, garlic, basil, mint, parsley and some salt and pepper in a blender and puree. Put the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag, pour in the marinade and seal. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to several hours, the longer the better.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat and brush with oil. Remove the breasts from the marinade and grill until cooked through with nice char marks, about 4 minutes a side. Slice the chicken and serve over Fettuccine Alfredo. Garnish with more basil.
• Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the package directions.
• Meanwhile, in a saucepan or skillet over low heat, add the cream and butter and cook until the butter melts and the mixture is warm. Season with salt and pepper.
• Put half of the Parmesan into a large serving bowl. Pour the warm butter/cream mixture over the top.
• Drain the pasta (reserving a little of the cooking water) and immediately pour it into the bowl. Toss a couple of times, then sprinkle in the other half of the Parmesan. Toss to combine, thinning with the reserved pasta water if necessary.
